Monday Thoughts

A couple of things on my mind this morning...

Football

Wow, what a crazy football year it's been already, in both College and the NFL.  It seems any team is beatable on any given day.  I'm sure y'all know what\who I want to talk about though - the Giants!  Wow, what a whoopin' they put on the Seahawks yesterday!  Even with out their "star receiver", they put points on the board just about every time they touched the ball.  Eli is looking so much like Peyton did in years past.  Spreading the ball around, making play changes at the line, throwing the ball where it needs to be thrown.  The Giants really are looking good right now.  Still a long way to go of course, but what a great start.

JT's choice

On Saturday, JT wrote that he had decided that he could not vote for John McCain after McCain voted for the bailout.  And he mentioned a lot of the things I wrote about in my last blog post.  And at the end, he said he'd be writing in a vote for Ron Paul.  This is something that I've thought about quite a bit.  I'm not sure what I'm going to do just yet, but I am getting to the point that I can't see my self voting for John McCain either.  And I want to take this opportunity to urge each of you to follow your convictions in this matter.  It's not about "pinching your nose" and voting for the lesser of two evils.  it's not about voting against one particular candidate.  It's about voting for the person YOU BELIEVE IN.  Even if that means you have to write that person in.  So JT, thanks for leading by example here.  You won't regret it.
